Revision can be a difficult process for writing students. This project uses peer-to-peer learning to coach students through various aspects of the revision process. Based around video clips of experienced college writers from the University of Michigan talking about their revision processes, this website covers such topics as how to set priorities for revision, how to make use of teacher and peer feedback, how to manage time in the revision process, and so forth.In addition to the videos, the website provides teaching resources, including sample student drafts and revisions, and lesson plans. It also provides polls (so students can "test" themselves on the materials and compare their answers to their peers') and prompts for reflection and commentary.

Math Snacks are short games and animations addressing critical content including number sense, ratio, proportion, measurement, scale factor, and pre-algebra. They are aimed at middle school learners. Math Snacks give learners a way to play with math and bring these concepts to life. Some Math Snacks address more than one content area and can be used in a variety of lessons at different grade levels. Each Math Snack is accompanied by teacher support materials including (as appropriate) teacher and learner guides, video demonstrations of teachers using games and animations in the classroom, hands-on activities, comic book transcripts, and relevant Common Core Standards.

Students need to be able to recognize a variety of text structures in nonfiction texts. This lesson plan is designed to help students differentiate between five particular text structures, including: Description, compare/contrast, sequence, cause/effect, problem/solution. It is crucial that fifth graders understand the difference between fiction and nonfiction and how to identify features in each. This interactive text structure lesson helps with this goal for both students and the teacher. The lesson will include an interactive group activity, time for student discussion, and also requires that students apply what they have learned about nonfiction text structures at the end of the lesson. It can be used as a launch to begin the nonfiction unit, or can be more of an informational piece in the middle of the unit, or it can even be used as a way to reflect and assess at the end of the unit.
